D) 4
Sample space for rolling two dice and finding the sum of the numbers:
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12
There are 4 ways to get a sum of 8: (2, 6), (3, 5), (4, 4), (5, 3)
List the sample space for rolling two dice and finding the sum of the numbers. How many 8's are there in the sample space? [Assume that rolling a 3 and a 5 is the same as rolling a 5 and a 3.]
